Good evening sir, My daughter got duel b.tech In mechanical and automation in IGDTUW and COE in Thapar, please suggest the preference which is better for her.

Ans: Thapar Institute of Engineering & Technology’s B.E. in Computer Engineering is a NAAC A+–accredited, NBA and ABET-endorsed program delivered by predominantly PhD-qualified faculty, featuring 27 advanced computing and research labs (AI/ML, cybersecurity, IoT) and an on-campus data centre. Over the last three years, it has recorded 90–100% branch placement rates with 300+ recruiters including Microsoft, Amazon, JP Morgan, and Google, and ensures mandatory industry internships from the 5th semester. Guru Tegh Bahadur Institute of Technology’s B.Tech CSE (NAAC A+, AICTE-approved, GGSIPU-affiliated) is supported by modern software, networking, and digital-forensics labs, guided by qualified faculty, and achieved 60–70% placement consistency with top recruiters such as Infosys, Paytm, HCL, Amazon, and ZS Associates. It offers structured placement cell activities and regular campus drives but has a smaller alumni network and fewer research collaborations compared to Thapar.

Recommendation: For superior placement consistency, extensive recruiter engagement, cutting-edge labs, and strong research orientation, choose Thapar COE. If regional convenience in Delhi and a focused CSE curriculum at a minority-run institute appeal more, consider GTBIT CSE. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!
